Typically people cry allready op. ;X Grave is totally OP, as are Artesia, Berzerker and all the others. x)))

For me it looks like a good idea, and if the LoL Babies come here to talk about stolen ideas of their... how can i say it nice... fastfood game so I can just laugh.


But people are people... as already Depeche Mode knew ;X

It's lame that he cannot throw player controlled creeps.

Less synergy ftl.

Because minion based push lineups needed to be MORE powerful.

How exactly do salforis, cthulu and moraxus carry? They have practicaly 0 scalability.

Devourer (dota) is much more of a carry than the ones i named, legionnaire is tankier and more of a carry aswell, rampage is arguably a dota carry/tank aswell.

Both games have tanks, adding less or more isn't going to change their viability, and I don't think this Kinesis guy is that tanky. There are multiple heroes with defensive spells and they aren't considered tanks (chronos, antimage, etc), their tankyness is defined by their item build, their STR and AGI.

Honestly.....


I'm pretty damn impressed. Normally I don't speak well of s2.... but this looks like a really solid hero. Good job.

[TheWarrent]

Great job Viole and crew on the video. Kinesis looks extremely enjoyable to play!

They carry by getting tanky early and pushing with the team while their aoe still crushes teamfights and they are unkillable.

carry =/= right click dps

My OP senses are tingling...
Let's hope that he is massively item dependant, or can be shut down easy.

1. Can survive with shield.
2. Large amounts of inherent DPS.
3. Easy reveal/zero (or next to) juking possibilities with mass control picking up trees.
4. Pusher with mass control on creep waves.
5. Ganker with lift.

JUST MAKE A BIG SIGN SAYING OP.

This looks awesome.

Listing his positive attributes doesn't make make much of a point.

Looks to me that he's gonna need a lot of levels to keep up with other heroes. But hey, let's not make any assumptions until we actually see him in action for a few weeks.

[[SBT]Rkey]

Looks awesome =)
